potty training edgar has been a bit rough for me because all my life i've been around large dogs. they have bigger bladders and you automatically train them to go outside. (lake michigan vs puddle) yorkies have teeny bladders!
i agree he may be confused with the go here, go outside thing.
have you thought about taking a wet pad outside? he will smell the "go here" smell on it.
and right now, he will go where he happens to be b/c he just can't hold it that long.
edgar is 7mo and he still has (very few) accidents. but now, he knows.
it will get easier, just be patient
